I am the essence of overconfidence! I am speculation, adventure; the spirit of pursuit; the stag howling for its winsome yet anonymous mate. I am the love call of evolution; the perfume and color of the flowers as they offer their pollen to the gentle buzz of the bees.
I am sex itself, gentlemen. I am life. I am appetite!

Hysteria

A fantastic 'run away' type song. Listened to it after a long time. Music in 80s and 90s were much better.

I think that any kind of music died the day stuff such as N Sync and Pinnadi Theru Pasanga became a hit. After that it was more and more and more synthesizer... I was listening to the FM the other day - there is this new song which goes Boom boom boom - it just made me realize that rock music and music in general is dead and buried deep.

the decade which saw Metallica's black album has to be the best for rock music...the 90's saw the best of established bands and the peaking of some relatively new ones (at that time)Oasis, Red Hot Chilli Peppers, Collective Soul, Counting Crows, Smashing Pumpkins, Gn'R, Pearl Jam, Green Day, Offspring, Match Box 20(?) etc. etc. were at their peak in the 90's..no question about it..

Pour some sugar on me is one of my all time favorite..The kind of music i loved died when the gentlemen who gave Jazz/Soul/Funk switched over to Rap..60s saw the rise, 70s hit the peak and by mid 80s it declined..This is because the music videos started overshadowing real music.I cringe now "seeing" those cheesy 80s music (videos) hits..

About Me

Hawkeye somehow managed to get educated, switch careers from engineering to business and secure gainful employment. He got employed because he failed to achieve his ultimate goal of becoming a house husband. He does not believe in luck but thinks he is the most unluckiest man in the world (read disclaimer). Such self-contradictory thoughts continue to separate the author from reality. He claims he can 'do humor' because he cant be taken seriously.Hawkeye is a nomad, a wanderer who has studied in more schools and lived in more places than he cares to remember. He has travelled to many many states within India and has seen almost all the important vacation spots. He constantly tries to bring in "I went to switzerland for my honeymoon" in unrelated conversations (like this one) and hopes to visit all the other countries in Europe. Loves to visit and learn historical information about Indian Temples. He is ramping up on the ancient metaphysical philosphy called Vishishta-Advaitha ( Qualified Non-Dualism) and loves to talk about it with anybody who claims to be an expert.
